Why ON EARTH would you want a huge program such as the Xserver to run
as root?? Sounds almost worse than sendmail :-) Seriously, what functionality
doesn't work if the server isn't run as root? I'm curious because I'm building
a (retina) R6 server myself, and haven't so far faced ANY problems running
it as a normal user.
